Setting Description
Terminate session when time limits are reached
Specifies whether to terminate a timed-out Remote Desktop
Services session instead of disconnecting it.
You can use this setting to direct Remote Desktop Services to
terminate a session (that is, the user is logged off and the
session is deleted from the server) after time limits for active or
idle sessions are reached. By default, Remote Desktop Services
disconnects sessions that reach their time limits.
Time limits are set locally by the server administrator or in Group
Policy. See the "Set time limit for active Remote Desktop
Services sessions" and "Set time limit for active but idle Remote
Desktop Services sessions" settings.
If you enable this setting, Remote Desktop Services terminates
any session that reaches its time-out limit.
If you disable this setting, Remote Desktop Services always
disconnects a timed-out session, even if specified otherwise by
the server administrator.
If you do not configure this setting, Remote Desktop Services
disconnects a timed-out session, unless specified otherwise in
local settings.
Note This setting only applies to time-out limits that are
deliberately set in the Remote Desktop Session Host
Configuration tool or Group Policy Management Console, and
not to time-out events that occur due to connectivity or network
conditions. Also note that this setting appears in both Computer
Configuration and User Configuration. If both settings are
configured, the Computer Configuration setting overrides.
Set time limit for logoff of RemoteApp sessions
Use this policy setting to specify how long a user's remote
application session will remain in a disconnected state before
the session is logged off from the RDS host.
By default, if a user closes a remote application, the session is
disconnected from the RDS host.
If you enable this policy setting, when a user closes a remote
application, the remote application session will remain in a
disconnected state until the time limit that you specify is
reached. When the time limit specified is reached, the remote
application session will be logged off from the RDS host. If the
user starts a remote application before the time limit is reached,
the user will reconnect to the disconnected session on the RDS
host.
If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, when a user
closes a remote application, the session will be disconnected
from the RDS host.
Note This policy setting appears in both Computer
Configuration and User Configuration. If both policy settings are
configured, the Computer Configuration policy setting takes
precedence.
